Description

Houdini was designed from the ground up to empower artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with their colleagues. Houdini stores every action in a node. These nodes are "wired" into networks that define a "recipe", which can be tweaked to improve the outcome, then repeated to create unique results. Houdini's procedural nature is due to the ability of nodes to be saved or to pass information (in the form of attributes) down the chain. Houdini's unique nodes are what make it powerful. However, there are many viewport and shelf tools which allow for artist-friendly interaction. Behind the scenes, Houdini creates the networks and nodes for you. Houdini allows artists to explore new creative paths, as it is easy for them to branch off to explore other solutions.

Description

OctaneRender® stands out as the first and fastest unbiased GPU rendering engine in the world, known for its spectrally accurate results that surpass any other production renderer currently available. OTOY® is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of graphics technology through innovative machine learning enhancements, comprehensive out-of-core geometry support, and impressive speed improvements ranging from 10 to 100 times in the scene graph. The addition of RTX raytracing GPU hardware acceleration offers remarkable render speed boosts of 2 to 5 times when utilizing NVIDIA raytracing GPUs, supporting multiple GPUs for enhanced performance. These speed improvements are particularly noticeable in more intricate scenes and can be assessed using RTX OctaneBench®. Furthermore, the updated layered material system permits users to create complex materials composed of a base layer and up to eight additional layers stacked on top, enhancing creative possibilities. Additionally, the introduction of new nodes such as layered material, diffuse layer, specular layer, sheen layer, metallic layer, and layer group nodes enriches the toolset available for artists. This comprehensive update not only enhances the functionality but also significantly expands the creative potential within OctaneRender®.
